A SENSATION IN THE MAYORS COURT.
There was q sensation in the Mayors court,
yesterday, just the last case was being cleared
from the docket Lucian Hetzel gester had been
fined for drunkennass and profanity. and being
unable to pay his fine, had been committed to
the work house. In attempting to break out of
the coop he kicked down a partition, and Ser
geant Mckinney started in to quiet him. As the
door opened. the prisoner, who is a muscular
man, pushed Mckinney aside and started to run
out through the City Court room. Mckinney
caught him, and he did so, the man sprang
him with an open pen knife Mayor Denny saw
the movement and jumped over the railing that
surrounds his bench, and caught Hetselgester's
arm in time to save Mckinney. There was q
lively struggle, but the Mayor overpowersd the
prisoner and wrested the knife from his grasp.
TRIAL OF wJFE-DEsERTER CHARLES.
When John d. Charles. the Pennsylvania
wife deserter, was brought before the Mayor

case should go TO the grand jury. His deserted
wife was present to appear against him and was
taken at before the grand jury. where she
told the story of his desertion. A full jury
not present, and an indictmept was not
turned. Mrs. Charles is in delicate health. and
the case will possibly be tried this week. in order
that she may return home. Mr.. Charles has
employed Arthur ". Brown to defend him. He
is very anxious to have his wife drop the prose-
cution and promises to return to her and care
for her and the two children. but she will not
agree to the proposed compromise. Mrs.
Charles is a lady of thirty years Miss Sites,
with whom Charles eloped, returned TO her home

How to Dispose of Dust

To the Editor f the INDIANAPOLIS Journal:
A savant lately examined some city dust and
found therein these things: scales from the
human body, the dried matter from suppurating
wounds. the insects which produce the disease
called itch. the fungus which causes ring-w
and scales from smallpox pustules The indf-
ference in our Western cities to mud and dust is
shocking: there is nothing like it in Christen-
dom or out. Sprinkling dusty streets into a
state Of mud is bad thing The proper thing
to do is to scrape up the dust and carry it away.
The dust is of use; it makes travel hard.
In Europe dust is scraped away. Then a slight
shrinking is enough The hollow spots should
be filled mp with pebbles, not dusty sand
with low and then a stone in it. Or. the streets
shoula be solidly paved with stones, and kept
clean. D.
